The Nuggets are getting close to having their top-nine rotation players healthy and available for the season-opener. Peyton Watson was a full participant in practice Sunday for the first time “in close to five weeks now,” coach Michael Malone said. The 22-year-old forward sustained a soft-tissue hamstring injury a few days before training camp, forcing him to miss all five of Denver’s preseason games. The Nuggets are still planning on Watson being available for opening night, Thursday at Ball Arena against the Oklahoma City Thunder. “We’ll see how that injury and how that muscle reacts to what he did today,” Malone said Sunday.
